A Bit Of Brisbane History

Once you’re all geared up, the group will begin to head up a spiral staircase leading to a suspended walkway, located just beneath the Bradfield Highway (fun fact: this is Australia’s shortest highway!). You will then be connected to the climb line and will remain that way for the entire climb. Now, it’s time to make your way along the suspended walkway as you approach the Story Bridge’s pylon base, as your local guide illuminates some history of the Bridge and Brisbane’s history.

It’s Climb Time!

Start off on the inner Eastern bridge arm, where you will be climbing level other cars and pedestrians. Then, branch off and begin the thrilling ascent along the cantilever arm, towering over the beautiful Brisbane River, and continuing further skyward! Where thrill and activity meet, the climb up is absolutely worth the views that await you as you reach the pinnacle of the Story Bridge!
